Last year, Chicago Friends of the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund, a small group of Chicago residents with personal connections to ovarian cancer, decided to create holiday cards to benefit OCRF. Brian Munck, whose mother was very ill, offered to donate the materials, packaging, and printing services to produce the holiday cards through his company, Graphic Suisse, Inc.Jill Gray, another OCRF supporter, asked Chicago-based graphic designer Marian Williams to be a part of the project. Marian generously donated her time to create four festive card designs.
Income from the cards will help fund ovarian cancer research. Although Brian's mother died as the cards were being delivered, he hopes that funds from the cards will help make a difference in other women's lives.Because of Brian Munck's and Marian Williams' donated goods and services, the entire price of the cards goes directly to OCRF's research programs.
